Fascinating photos reveal surprisingly intact remains of Yorkshire railway line which closed in 1960s

Fascinating photos reveal the surprisingly intact remains of the old Gilling to Pickering branch line in the North York Moors, which closed in the 1960s

Mr Dennis said: “I spotted/made use of this fine multi-span arch bridge that took the old NER Helmsley branch over the Rye near Nunnington. It looks structurally sound, but the parapet copers and pilaster capstones could do with some love.

“Also: despite its legal status, much of the route remains intact between what's left of Nunnington station and Helmsley . It would be a useful link for Sustrans North to take charge of!” Other structures along the line including a viaduct, signal boxes, bridges, signage and railway cottages are all still visible. Some remains of the Helmsley Station platforms can also still be seen. The only station to have been demolished is Kirkbymoorside.The trackbed mostly crosses farmland
